Internet Safety for Kids

The Wisconsin Department of Justice Computer Crimes Investigators Guide has these guidelines for kids:

Kids Guidelines:

  • I will not give out personal information such as my address, telephone number, parents’ work address/telephone number, or the name and location of my school, or any identifying information about my school, without my parents’ permission.
  • I will tell my parents/guardian/or other responsible adult right away if I come across any information that makes me feel uncomfortable.
  • I will never agree to get together with someone I meet online without first checking with my parents. If my parents agree to the meeting, I will make sure that it is in a public place and bring my mother or father or guardian along.
  • I will never send a person my picture or anything else without first checking with my parents.
  • I will not respond to any messages that are mean or in any way make me feel uncomfortable. It is not my fault if I get a message like that. If I do, I will tell my parents/guardian right away. Specifically, I will not respond to obscene or threatening messages.
